HIT seeks six 15-ton fork lifters on FOR basis with a six-month delivery window. Bidders must hold NTN certificates and prior HIT registration or pre-qualification; documentation requirements are extensive, including three years of audit reports and evidence of government contract experience. The tight submission timeline (17 August 2026) leaves limited preparation; the FOR basis shifts freight risk to the buyer. This appears to be a straightforward equipment procurement with standard eligibility gates typical of defence PSO tenders.
Who can bid: Bidders must hold active NTN Certificates and possess either HIT registration, pre-qualification, or indexation. Sales Tax Department registration and evidence of no default or blacklisting are mandatory. Distributors or agents must demonstrate a trade link with the OEM. Typically, firms bidding to HIT should have prior government or semi-government supply experience.
